Alternatives

  1. From Folly Bridge just east of Seatoller you can turn right rather than left and instead of heading uphill around High Doat follow the river to join the Cumbria Way just west of Rosthwaite. You then continue following the River Derwent until the primary Ramble route rejoins as it descends alongside Broadslack Gill.
  2. Shortly afterwards you can again decide to follow the Cumbria Way which keeps closer to the shore of Derwent Water, rejoining the primary Ramble route at Hawes End.
